Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the development on the living conditions of existing and future occupiers of neighbouring residential property, having regard to privacy

What decided it

The installation of bifold doors caused unacceptable harm to the privacy of neighbouring occupiers by significantly increasing glazing in the side elevation, creating a permanent and marked sense of visual intrusion that could not be adequately mitigated by conditions.
